Retrieve my data / Beginner

Question

Started to use AWS a few years back; uploaded some of my data.  It's the only place I have this data.  Have not used this service for years- need my data back.  Cannot find how to get my data back (all I can do is download 1 file at a time.  Think it is all in S3?  Any assistance is appreciated.

Answer

Hi There 
If you need to download a lot of files from S3, you can use the CLI on your local machine

1. Install the CLI (See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-getting-started.html)
2. Run the aws s3 sync command.  This will download all of the files in the s3 bucket to your local machine.  
         Example `aws s3 sync s3://mybucket c:\myfolder`
